Mitochondria undergo dynamic changes to maintain function in eukaryotic cells. Insulin action in parallel regulates glucose homeostasis, but whether specific changes in mitochondrial dynamics alter insulin action and glucose homeostasis remains elusive. Here, we report that high-fat feeding in rodents incurred adaptive dynamic changes in mitochondria through an increase in mitochondrial fission in parallel to an activation of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) in the dorsal vagal complex (DVC) of the brain. Direct inhibition of Drp1 negated high-fat-feeding-induced mitochondrial fission, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and insulin resistance in the DVC and subsequently restored hepatic glucose production regulation. Conversely, molecular activation of DVC Drp1 in healthy rodents was sufficient to induce DVC mitochondrial fission, ER stress, and insulin resistance. Together, these data illustrate that Drp1-dependent mitochondrial fission changes in the DVC regulate insulin action and suggest that targeting the Drp1-mitochondrial-dependent pathway in the brain may have therapeutic potential in insulin resistance.

Filippi et al. find that induction of Drp1-dependent mitochondrial fission in the dorsal vagal complex of rodents under high-fat feeding can induce ER stress and insulin resistance.
